Unicode encoding point in PHP

Question: How to get the characters of U 010F? For example, how to get the characters corresponding to the U 010F Unicode encoding point? This encoding point corresponds to the Latin lowercase letter o with pointed notes, or “ó”.

Answer:

PHP provides several functions to handle Unicode encoding points:

] : Convert a hexadecimal string to a decimal integer.
• mb_ord()
: Get the Unicode code point of the string (supported by multibyte string).
• mb_chr()
: Convert Unicode code points to strings (multi-byte string support).
• The following is an example code for getting U 010F characters:

var_dump(hexdec('010F')); var_dump(mb_ord('ó')); // 243 var_dump(mb_chr(243)); // ó

var_dump(hexdec('010F'));

var_dump(mb_ord('ó')); // 243
var_dump(mb_chr(243)); // ó
